This building had two developers, the first one worked up to the 8th floor, the second from the 9th floor up. The first developer who was building it as apartments to rent ordered white appliances and the second developer who bought the building to finish it as condos installed stainless steel appliances. So in general units on the 8th floor and below have white appliances and 9th and above stainless steel. 

Units facing these directions will probably see: 

• West: You will be looking at a high rise apartment building built in 2018 (Luma), this building is mainly on the Southern portion of the block across the street and if your in the Northern part of Acqua Vista you should still have some views to the West not obstructed by the big tall apartment building. 
• North: Very open and panoramic views. Views NE are blocked by the high rise La Vita condominiums. 
• East: Looking into the 350 West Ash loft building and the Aperture condos. Units on the uppermost floors of the northern potion on the east side will be able to see over the Aperture lofts building. 
• South: The Carte hotel was just built in 2019 that is about as tall as Aqua Vista and blocks all the views directly South.

Note: These views may change in the future or if your on a very low floor may not have any view. Each buyer should verify on their own.

Like the most:	A common thread in almost all the survey respondents was the appreciation of its location in Little Italy so close to the boutiques and restaurants. Positive comments were also made on the views, close proximity to the bay, 8th floor roof top pool. One resident said the neighbors are cool.
Like the least:	Several residents informed me they do not like the relatively high monthly home owners association (HOA) fees. One respondent commented that they did not like the color of the buildings exterior or interior.
Other comments:	This building has mandatory valet parking. While most survey respondents gave the parking a high star rating and some gave positive comments on it, some residents expressed they did not like valet parking concept even though the parking staff is great.
